P.S. I might make a commission if you buy those books, but man they really helped catapult my Korean so I'm telling the truth when I say they are the best.

After all the dust was settled, it was estimated that over 2 million people died from the Korean War. Today, my friend Shinyeong joins us in discussing the history of the Korean War from inception to the aftermath. There's a surprising group of agents involved in the war that I never thought about before, too.

한국전쟁에서 사망자 수가 200만 명 넘었다. 오늘은 제 친구 신영과 함계 한국 전쟁의 시작과 결말, 모든 역사에 대해 이하기 할겁니다. 제가 생각보지 못하는 단체도 한국에게 큰 영향을 미쳤습니다.

Feeling lonely from SIP? Same here. Luckily, all it takes is a "How are you?" to start the conversation.

What's life been like for foreigners in Korea during COVID? My ex-coworkers Shuang and Sangya talk about their lives teaching at an English academy and how life has changed in the COVID era.

Ever felt like your life was TOO safe? That's what Anis and Sequoia felt before they went to Korea. Both knew they wanted a change. Where? What better place than one where you don't know the language, the food, or the lifestyle?

Their curiosity and willingness to explore new cultures, cuisines, and countries had them pack their bags and move 6,000 miles across the Pacific to teach in Korea. Despite not knowing much Korean when they first came, they were able to quickly adapt to the new food and lifestyle in Korea. Today they share their experience living in Korea and what places to hit up when you're in town!

Why do we do nice things? Is it just for our own gain? Doing nice things for others...actually makes us happier, too. Today I share a story that speaks to exactly that. We're all sharing one world and one life. Let's help each other along the way. 

Love Thy Neighbor.

이웃 사랑하기를 네 몸과 같이 하라.
